remember in 2020 when the #food #service #industry was in complete in utter chaos because of the #global #pandemic? how the #fitness industry got shut down and had to find so many #work arounds? how #education imploded? how the global #supplychain halted for a good minute?

This day four years ago was my last day in the office for months, did the pandemic work from home thing for the next twenty weeks. (And was grateful to have a job, given our industry shut down entirely for many weeks.)

Nestlé is the *real* monolith. It's shocking how much of the global food and water industry they control.
Can someone, many years later, explain to me how "Asmodee was good for the industry?"
You'd be surprised at how many animal abusing fuckheads continue to find work in the entertainment industry.

I remember how aggressively smoking was marketed to kids in the 90s and how aggressively everyone in the industry denied it. And yet.
Percentage of people who smoke has gone way down. That's a lot fewer people who will be a financial burden on society due to healthcare costs and an emotional burden on their families due to long, painful, untimely deaths.

Just global capitalism at work. This is how smaller countries are treated. Remember how the IMF essentially forced Barbados not to lock down during the worst of the pandemic?
I never worked behind one but had enough friends in the service industry to know how things work
Remember how in 2014 the Obama administration requested over $6 billion in emergency funding to respond to future viral outbreaks (Ebola was a global concern at the time), and how Republicans in congress blocked it?
Remember how in 2018 Trump dismantled the existing Pandemic Response Team?

The tech industry fails users in a big way.
The Auto industry, in my opinion, is a good example of how to brand an industry.
99% of the car "must know" is standard across the industry.
One can use the tool for work or pleasure.
The "how" is under the hood.
Beauty is in plain sight.
Yeah, it reminds me from years ago, the debate about global warming and how all the research scientists were "in it for the money", but those supporting the massively wealthy fossil fuel industry were not.

I work in the auto industry and once got to see a torn down Tesla.
It was immediately striking as to how cheap and trashy the parts were.
I worked in the animation industry for over nine years. Then the strikes came. Work dried up. And I got laid off.
Now I work a service job for a fraction of what I used to make. I check-in occasionally, only to get reminded of how bullshit the animation industry has become.
Fuck capitalism.

Ever sit and think about how we know the tobacco industry lied for years about their products? And how the oil and gas industry lied about climate change and their products, and how the plastic industry lied about recycling of their products, and how the food industry is routinely caught lying...
Does this dumbass realize how many people illegally rent under the table from homeowners in big cities? Me and four of my friends "rented" a shithole in Tribeca in the late 90s. So many of my service industry friends did the same.

Food science, focus in fermentation. I was in the cheese industry after college for almost four years
